Fireflies
I know that not all fireflies glow
Their glow brightens to light dark off
They light up the globe until dawn.
And poof! They go! They disappear.
They start out young and then they grow
Some parches smooth, some parches rough
And soon some start, some stop to run
I know that not all fireflies glow.
Stories are told of fireflies fare
How they traverse we still don’t know
Found in the night, a bright delight
Their glow brightens to light dark off.
Even continents share their sun
Lighting lullabies from rainfalls
Synchronising to warm this earth
They light up the globe until dawn.
We see their duty posts reserved
They heat at winter, mate in snow
They pack their bags to say goodbye
And poof! They go! They disappear.
Fireflies! Fireflies! please light this fireplace
Show what attraction does to the face.
Light it up! Glow! Let your abdomen show!
Find one mate and the others will chase. -Leon

Thousand fireflies can’t light this night
Be here, blink those stollen cat’s eyes
It seems we’ve been friends since past life
When love boils, all else becomes yes
It is dark here I need some light
Silence? We need to break the ice
I’ve deep cuts from distant’s sharp knife
Thousand fireflies can’t light this night
Nights are too slow, the weight does press
Sucking me out of energy
Days can sometimes be slow as well
Be here, blink those stollen cat’s eyes
You sure are my little firefly
Your butt light guides me through my nights
Why is all of this familiar
It seems we’ve been friends since past life.
I will jump of the cliff with you
I sure will learn to fly with you
I will travel to times with you
When love boils, all else becomes yes
Dear firefly, put on that little light
Lead this lonely me pass this bored night
In this little park where all is just dark
But you flick your flashlight, all goes bright. –Tee2emm

The sun’s tenure fades in darkness
When we were kids, it comes with fear
It’s a metaphor for evil
Fireflies were our only hope
Their breathe breeds candles we harness
Its bestowed company so dear
We preferred them to the beetle
The sun’s tenure fades with darkness
It descends with yokes you can’t cope
Imagine a life without fire
Without the means to cook or warm
When we were kids it comes with fear
The absence of sparks grows weakness
Its presence installed calm the nerves
Lit not a path and send a child;
It’s a metaphor for evil
Much of everything is bad though
The same thing that heals might kill too
Fireflies might ditch but without them
The sun’s tenure fades with darkness.
I saw it clear in your eyes burnING
I’m lost to that which am yearnING
Love afar lust BEATS my ego DELETES
It’s above mankind this fire chirpING.-Bamvy

These pages are ashes of us
holding no more of what is left.
Keep on lighting those memories,
as you burn and burn your tail out.
Your tyres still roll the moving bus
as it quickly leaves with the heft.
Should you be told these same stories?
these pages are ashes of us.
This night holds more worries about
when you spoke low of the fireflies.
The owl beside my window hissed
holding no more of what is left.
Shall I write more, of what essence
When dark and gloom is still with me?
Fireflies so bright and awake
keep on lighting those memories.
Here and now my mind only thinks
of what we had and how we lived.
I still have pictures of your bye’s
as you burn and burn your tail out.
This façade has my mind’s eye from back
the bird you are with light taken aback
I thought you called me, because I could see.
At night, company I never lack – Rudolph

Every night they come to meet me
Night never cease where colours die!
Set me afire! Pierce me with sight!
Firefly, hear, fly past September!
Fly, forget to remember She!
On earth, September, let her lie!
Give her no chance, no breath, no fight!
Every night they come to meet me!
Fire, I speak of you, September!
Burn down, fly forever away!
It is time, Issachar knows it!
Night never cease where colours die!
Much more than time will be at stake
When you confront trusted pillars!
Firefly, much more depends on you.
Set me afire! Pierce me with sight!
Here I dream, a dream of ages!
Awake to a world of sages!
Men and gods must answer to words!
Firefly, hear, fly past September!
September, sure I would dismember
Every hold on you, fire, forever!
Every limb, see, see, you have lost on me!
Set me free from lightning and thunder!-OracLe

Last night was magical for me
Atop the dewy hills i sat
Underneath the grass with lush green
Surrounded by an eerie light
Out in the open breathing free
Weightless thing with tiny wings bat
As a girl would her eyes and grin
Last night was magical for me
Together they danced with delight
Millions of them trickle in line
Little wee fireflies perched on trees
Atop the dewy hills i sat
Amidst a mesmerising glow
They twinkle light like flying stars
And so my heart lit to behold
Surrounded by an eerie light
As the evening comes to an end
May beauty beyond this night transcend
Saddened as they fade, leaving a dark shade
looking upwards as shadows descend-Vera

Those late nights under the moon light,
Times they sat,their hands intertwined,
Just like the meaning of your name
You are a beauty to behold
It’s all fake she said, it’s not right,
He said he’ll never leave when they dined,
Being seen together was a shame,
Those late nights under the moon light.
He left,proving all she was told,
Crying her eyes out with blurred sight,
The fireflies brought memories past,
Times they sat, their hands intertwined.
In nostalgia she dwell in pain,
His voice echoing in hear ears,
Empty promises, lies he told,
Just like the meaning of your name.
She didn’t recognize herself,
Gone, the beauty she once possess,
Looking in the mirror she heard,
You are a beauty to behold.
Putting the fireflies in a bottle,
Hoping they light her life a little,
She became happier, her night brighter,
She was living, moving to settle –Hijab Gurl

Little auk came out full of brisk
To attack prey with sexual glow
Communicate steadily light.
Distasteful to fry,cook and eat.
Predators dated solemn risk.
Fireflies! Come out! It gave a show
Forsake Faber feast for full freight
Little Auk came out full of brisk
Not flightless,ready for the heat
Bioluminescence Action
Chemical reaction,Vision.
To attack prey with sexual glow
Fireflies,an awesomely creature
Fire flies when both species mate in
To fly up,for sexual notice
Communicate steadily light
Caravaggio paint invention
Fireflies powdered for awe canvas
Images projected tested
Distasteful to fry cook and eat.
Lightning bugs are so full of life sign
Whether green yellow pale red is fine
Innocent glowing,no man seen blowing
Harmless species mating in the line.-Rachel Charles

Fireflies, harmless, pretty fire, fly
Beauty in her glide at night time
She bleeds a bright light in green shade
Fire; comes with sweet saying, fly bright
She does not burn: tender, not sly
She won’t hum bad tune, she’s a dime
She flaws a mosquito’s charade
Fireflies, harmless pretty fire, fly
She graces the dark, her lamp bright
Bearing only light in her heart
Flying, looking for dark to stomp
Beauty in her glide at night time
With a lot of hate in the world
Harm seeks her, she has not done wrong
Agent of dark seeks to squish her
She bleeds a bright light in green shade
So, with your love, warm in my chest
Burning softly through my cold veins
You shine bright on every aspect
Fire, comes with sweet saying, fly bright
Fire, fly! At first you would think of harm
Hosting feasts of light on your small farm
Righteous fire, that flies without all the lies
I call her Love, with a heart of charm.-Hybrid
